[Update] - Alexander Akimichi

"All creatures want to believe in something bigger than themselves. They cannot live without blind obedience. And to escape the pressure of that trust, those in whom faith is placed in turn look for someone higher than themselves. And then people in turn look for someone even stronger. That is how all Kings are born."

Looks: Alexander is a tall, light-skinned man with spiky brown hair, slightly chubby due to his conversion of calories into chakra, although quite slim in appearance nonetheless. Around his waist, he had a sash that held a sack, presumably containing his ninja tools. During later years, his hair grew out more and his sash was replaced by a belt, adorned with pouches and various weapons. He also wore another sash strapped across his shoulders which he used to hold his numerous swords. By adulthood, his hair had grown to waist-length with shoulder-length bangs framing the sides of his face, the left side hanging partially over his left eye. Although still relatively young, more prominent creases had developed under each of his eyes. His attire took the form of the Akimichi's standard shinobi outfit, consisting of light brown traditional armour, similar to that of a samurai, worn over a simple black suit. This armour was constructed from numerous metal plates, formed into multiple protective guards along his body, in particular: chest, waist, back, shoulders and thighs. This clothing was accompanied by boots and gloves, as well as his village's forehead protector of Konohagakure while having the Akimichi's clan symbol displayed in the lower medium part of his chest protector. During battle, he often carries a light brown-coloured war fan on his back that has a weird step-like pattern, coloured black, in both of the top corners with a chain-link, connecting it to a medium sized scythe for close combat.

Personality: Alexander is a very confident and prideful young individual. Most of the time he is seen very calm and relaxed. He tends to enjoy life to the fullest and is always late to his mission meetings due to getting lost in the path of life as he likes to say. Alexander takes very good care of his comrades and will do anything that is necessary to keep them alive in the heat of battle.

Village Information

Village of Birth: Konohagakure no Sato; Literally meaning, Village Hidden by Tree Leaves Village of Alliance: Iwagakure no Sato; Literally meaning, Village Hidden by Rocks

Pyramid: Being one of the two defensive methods; The user will channel his/her wind chakra throughout three bladed objects like Kunais, shurikens, swords etc and throw them on the ground within range, forming a triangular formation. As the objects are placed on the ground, a pyramid made of cutting/shredding wind will be created that covers the user's entire vicinity, including the floor. During creation the user is able to choose whether or not the cutting/shredding effects the floor side.

Shield: Being the second defensive method; The user will shift his body in the form of a "Y" with his/her arms raised and feet placed together. Both feet and hands will act as connection points to each other, similar to the bladed objects, creating a triangular shield of cutting/shredding wind in front of the user as means of defense.

Net: The user will throw three bladed objects and manipulate the wind chakra channeled throughout them and the wind currents to create a triangular net of cutting/shredding wind that travels forward along with their respective projectiles.

▵ The user is unable to perform any other techniques if the shield method is in use.
▵ Can only use one method per turn
▵ Can be used four times per battle
▵ Must be taught by Hard

Lightning: This attribute will coat the weapon in lightning and grant it piercing and slicing/cutting capabilities. The pierced area will suffer slight numbness similar to chidori spear.

Wind: This attribute will coat the weapon in wind and also grant it slicing/cutting capabilities along with the ability to shred due to the manifested cutting edge wind currents surrounding the weapon.

▵ Can be used four times per battle
▵ Requires Kamisama かみさま God's Sacrifice to use
▵ Only one of the elemental affinities can be activated around Kamisama per turn

(Fūton: Okami Sono Sora) - Wind Release: Emperor Of The Skies
Type: Supplementary/Offensive
Rank: A
Range: Short
Chakra cost: 30 (-10 per turn)
Damage points: N/A
Description: Similar to Temari's "Wind Ryder Technique" the user will release his wind chakra outwards and manipulate the air currents beneath his war-fan, or any other fan big enough to be ridden on. He will then jump onto the war-fan as he rides it like a surfboard and is able to go airborne at fairly fast speeds like any traveling wind technique at its peak traveling speed. If the user wishes, he can utilize the war-fan while it is strapped to his back to initiate flight similar to how a kite is flown, however with the user attached to the bottom of it. The user can only glide/ride in a linear manner and not freely fly like regular flight techniques. The user can only change locations in mid flight once(ex. Gain height while going upwards during activation then choose the linear traveling path). After the liner path travel has completed the user will be suspended in mid-air for a total of two turns before the air currents are reduce back to normal, causing the user to start free-falling back down into the ground.

Background Information

History: Alexander's rightful birthplace is in the village hidden in the leaves, also known as Konohagakure. He was born in one of Konoha's special hidden clans, the Akimichies. Members of the clan possess great physical strength and are able to quickly convert calories into chakra, which they then use in their various secret techniques. Most of these techniques rapidly consume the user's chakra during use, and maintaining them during a prolonged battle can be tiring. For this reason the Akimichi eat a lot in order to build up or replenish their chakra reserves. Many Akimichi use a bō as their choice of weapon, however Alexander has chosen to specialize in the usage of a war fan that has the staff-like structure to hold the fan together. These staffs have the ability to lengthen in proportion to their wielder's size. These weapons also have small appendages at the top of them. The Akimichi clan has a special relationship with the Nara and Yamanaka clan. For generations, members of these three families have formed "Ino–Shika–Chō" trios, named after the first part of the names of the members with the Akimichi members being the "Chō" in the trio. To strengthen the unity between the three clans, a member of the Sarutobi clan will give them special earrings to present to each generation head when they are promoted to chūnin after which they will swear their oaths. The earrings also symbolise that they are considered adults by their respective clans. That begin said, Alexander has yet to find his rightful Ino–Shika–Chō trio in order to build relationships with. Being a genin, Alexander has just recently graduated from the ninja academy and is slowly progressing in his new ninja missions as he utilizes his spare time to train in his clan's techniques.

After several years of hardships, Alexander was able to progress to the ranks an reach S-Class. Having failed to find his "Ino–Shika–Chō" trio, Alexander set out on a journey, leaving Konoha behind, as well as his head-band, officially becoming a rogue ninja. After various years of traveling and developing his clan techniques further, Alexander ended stationing himself in Iwagakure, the hidden village in the rocks. A few months passed and Alexander had become bored with himself, having the same daily routine all the time. However, on a sunny day, within the outskirts of Iwagakure as he was training, Alexander was approached by a man. The man's name was Hazama. He seemed very interested in Alexander for some strange reason. It must have been his clan abilities that caught his attention, though I will never know. The strange individual offered Alexander some training in the basic elements. Having no real training in any of the basics, Alexander happily accepted the offer. Three years passed and Alexander was able to master all five elements. As a price of sorts, and sign of loyalty and honor; Hazama allowed Alexander to sign the Hyena contract, one of the most fearsome animals within Iwagakure, feared and known by their memorizing laughs.

During his basic training, Hazama was able to speak with Mathias, the current Tsuchikage of Iwagakure to allow him to become a shinobi within their village. Although hesitant, Mathias trusted in Hazama's judgement, and allowed Alexander to become a full fledged shinobi. A few weeks passed and he was finally assigned his first mission. It was a rather simple mission; Requiring him to be a body guard for a very important couple. The destination lead to the water country, more specifically, Kirigakure, the hidden village in the mist. After successfully completing his mission, Alexander headed back towards Iwagakure. While on the road, he came across a very interesting man, sitting against a tree, sipping on some coffee with a calm look on his face. Both Alexander and Akihiko spoke for hours, both enjoying themselves very much. Without any real intentions of training, Alexander later found himself being taught by Akihiko the arts of ninjutsu. Having mastered the basic elements Alexander only thought it would be logical to also learn the basic ninjutsu manipulation. After a month or so, Alexander was able to master the basics of ninjutsu. Akihiko being so happy with Alexander's progress, he also thought it would be the perfect time to start Alexander's genjutsu training. Til' this day, Alexander still hasn't reached Iwagakure as his time is spent under the guidance of Akihiko in the field of genjutsu.

Other

Wind Affinity: Alexander was born with the wind affinity. With his constant usage of wind and fan combinations along with sword techniques, Alexander has been able to perfect his element, allowing him to perform wind-style techniques with a single hand seal.

Curse Mark Transformation: Alexander possesses the curse mark of heaven which is located on his right wrist. When he enters stage two, Alexander's entire body turns black with a black chakra aura covering his eyes, preventing him from being blinded and allowing him to see through the light. His entire skin hardens similar to iron skin defense. Allowing him to defend against hand to hand combat or sword strikes, etc. All throughout his forearms, shins, legs, arms, are various five inch long spikes that are used to pierce through his prey. This form also allows him to create demonic wings which give him the ability to fly.

Weapons: Like all shionobi, Alexander wields multiple pouches which hold all the basic ninja items like shuriken, kunais, tags, wire, etc. Strapped to his back, lays a war-fan similar in shape and size to the one used by the infamous Madara Uchiha. The war-fan processes a chain link which connects to a medium sized scythe. The chain-link is long enough for the scythe to reach up to medium range distance. Along the side his left waist, Alexander wields a standard katana should he get into a close range fight. In custom fights, Alexander wields the same exact fan, although with other certain abilities.

Kamisama かみさま God's Sacrifice

Type: Weapon
Rank: A
Range: Short - Medium
Chakra: 30
Damage: N/A (+10 Wind Combinations)
Description: Kamisama is a weapon which was crafted by Alexander himself, after reading and analyzing information throughout the years about Madara Uchiha's infamous weapon. Kamisama is a medium sized war-fan rivaling the height of an average shionbi when placed along side with one another. The light brown fins decorated with a strange symbol on each end of the war-fan are made of a very lightweight and durable material that does not conduct electricity, nor is it able to be engulfed in flames. The core of the war-fan is a nearly indestructible pole with a thin rubber layer to avoid conductivity that is bandaged up from the bottom end all the way to the middle of the poll. At the very bottom of the pole lays a very lightweight, thin, and durable chain link which appears to have metallic spheres evenly spaced every three inches which ensures enhanced gripping. The other end of the chain-link is connected to a medium sized nearly indestructible scythe which was rumored to be one of Madara's deadliest weapons in combination with the war-fan. Just like the pole, the scythe's hand is also laced in a thin layer of rubber with bandages covering the entire thing up to the blade itself. The chain-link is long enough to allow Alexander to throw his scythe up to medium range distance similar to Hidan's scythe. Both the war-fan and scythe are strapped in the center of his back in an "X" manner. The unique ability of the war fan is to coat elemental projectile-type techniques with wind chakra. When the user releases an elemental projectile type technique, he will swing the fan and coat the technique with wind chakra, causing the technique in question to be turned into a XX/wind combination. Meaning that if the user releases a fireball and swings the fan, it would turn into a fire/wind combination. Although it does not boost the rank nor size of the technique in question, it does boost them by ten damage points. In order to release the projectile techniques successfully and coat them in wind, Alexander found out a way to exchange hand signs for fan swings. Meaning that for every two hand seals required in a projectile type technique, the user is required to swing his fan once. (ex: If I release a fire technique that requires four hand seals, I would need to swing the fan twice as I then release the fire and coat it in wind, increasing its damage while it maintains the same rank.) The wind enhancement would not be effective against lightning techniques because the lightning technique in question would disperse. Kamisama is chakra reactive, which if channeled with expansion chakra it will expand at the users will. Expanding it refers to using any variation of the Akimichi clan's expansion techniques and so leading to count towards the user's jutsu per turn. When releasing a wind style technique from Kamisama, the technique in question would automatically receive the ten damage boost due to the fact that is not physically possible to create a wind/wind combination. The user is also able to release physical projectiles like kunais, shuriken, senbons etc and coat them in wind chakra for increased speed and damage. This is accomplished in the same manner that the elemental projectile techniques are enhanced into combinations.
